(I think I finally read that right) If this is the case, my above comment has nothing to do with your trip. I am an idiot. Tip: read carefully before ranting I re-read your blog and realized that these people were not in fact selling trinkets, but collecting them for themselves.

Chochki (spelling unknown, go with phonetics) Definition: tourist crap I have been to the remote island of Bora Bora, and, with the exception of one small market, there were local people in large tents peddling chochki. You, my lovely brother, are in a remote village in the desolate interior of iceland, and you find that these venture capitalists posing as sleepy town folk, are also participating in this global *%$@# peddling. One could surmise that if they truely wanted to travel to the most remote places on earth, it would not be based on latitude, longitude, or single digit populations, but the absence of small plastic trinkets adorned with the name of the place in which it was purchased. It looks so relaxing there. Even sitting here, thousands of miles away, I find the pictures calming. If I were lucky enough to be with you I know I would find real serenity. I would need it too, because you are the scariest driver in the world. You really missed your NASCAR calling, and I am sure that your travels mates are finding this out. I wish I were with you. I am so envious. Pakrat, or worldly traveler?
